Overview
- Two days after Carlos Mazón resigned, the PP has not named a successor and party figures fear an internal struggle as Génova waits on Vox’s preferences.
- Parliamentary arithmetic forces the PP to secure Vox votes for any investiture before a two‑month clock toward possible March elections would be triggered by a failed vote.
- Santiago Abascal says Vox will be “more firm and more demanding,” conditioning support on policy concessions including opposition to EU green measures and irregular immigration, and he signals no fear of fresh elections.
- The Catarroja judge has called members of Mazón’s team, PP síndic Juan Francisco Pérez Llorca, and the owner of El Ventorro to testify as witnesses in the criminal inquiry into the dana.
- Mazón has requested to appear before the Valencian Corts’ dana commission on Nov. 11, ahead of his scheduled appearance in the Congress inquiry on Nov. 17, as interim vice president Vicente Martínez Mus opens outreach to the central government and victims.
